The Government & Community Relations office works with Associated Students of UW Bothell (ASUWB), helping students understand the legislative process. We assist in setting up meetings in Olympia with Legislators. We help prepare students for those meetings by providing examples of questions they might encounter while there and assist in crafting their responses. We work closely with the ASUWB’s director of Government Relations.
